# Release 22.11 {#sec-release-22.11}
The 22.11 release branch became the stable branch in November, 2022.
## Highlights {#sec-release-22.11-highlights}
This release has the following notable changes:
- The [home.stateVersion](#opt-home.stateVersion) option no longer has a default
value. It used to default to "18.09", which was the Home Manager
version that introduced the option. If your configuration does not
explicitly set this option then you need to add
``` nix
home.stateVersion = "18.09";
```
to your configuration.
- The Flake function `homeManagerConfiguration` has been simplified.
Specifically, the arguments
- `configuration`,
- `username`,
- `homeDirectory`,
- `stateVersion`,
- `extraModules`, and
- `system`
have been removed. Instead use the new `modules` argument, which
accepts a list of NixOS modules.
Further, the `pkgs` argument is now mandatory and should be set to
`nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${system}` where `nixpkgs` is the Nixpkgs
input of your choice.
For example, if your Flake currently contains
``` nix
homeManagerConfiguration {
configuration = import ./home.nix;
system = "x86_64-linux";
username = "jdoe";
homeDirectory = "/home/jdoe";
stateVersion = "22.05";
extraModules = [ ./some-extra-module.nix ];
}
```
then you can change it to
``` nix
homeManagerConfiguration {
pkgs = nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${system};
modules = [
./home.nix
./some-extra-module.nix
{
home = {
username = "jdoe";
homeDirectory = "/home/jdoe";
stateVersion = "22.05";
};
}
];
}
```
Of course, you can move the assignment of [home.username](#opt-home.username),
[home.stateVersion](#opt-home.stateVersion) to
some other file or simply place them in your `home.nix`.
- The `services.picom` module has been refactored to use structural
settings.
As a result `services.picom.extraOptions` has been removed in favor
of [services.picom.settings](#opt-services.picom.settings). Also, `services.picom.blur*`
were removed since upstream changed the blur settings to be more
flexible. You can migrate the blur settings to use
[services.picom.settings](#opt-services.picom.settings) instead.
- The `services.compton` module has been removed. It was deprecated in
release 20.03. Use `services.picom` instead.
## State Version Changes {#sec-release-22.11-state-version-changes}
The state version in this release includes the changes below. These
changes are only active if the `home.stateVersion` option is set to
\"22.11\" or later.
- The [services.mpd.musicDirectory](#opt-services.mpd.musicDirectory) option now defaults to
the value of [xdg.userDirs.music](#opt-xdg.userDirs.music) if
[xdg.userDirs.enable](#opt-xdg.userDirs.enable) is enabled. Otherwise it is
undefined and must be specified in the user configuration.
- The activation script now resets `PATH` before running. Before, the
user's `PATH` environment variable would be used in the script and
this made it possible for commands in the activation script to run
arbitrary commands accessible to the user. We now restrict the
activation script to commands that are explicitly specified.
There is no official way to restore the old behavior. We attempt to
make the activation script as reproducible as possible and honoring
the user's `PATH` reduces reproducibility.
If you need to run a command in an activation script block then
refer to the command by its absolute command path, such as
`${pkgs.hello}/bin/hello`.
